This invention relates to a finishing strip orwelt for upholstery especially adapted for usea's afiller member for a metal mold,
. second layer integral with. the beaded layer and extended from the edge of one side portion across said hollow bead to the other side portion and cemented or otherwise secured to the first-mentioned layer on 013 posite sides of said hollow bead. v i The hollow bead may and preferably will be provided within it with a reinforcing filler member.
The particularfeatures 'of'the invention will be pointed out in the claim at the end of this specification.
Fig. l is a front elevation of a piece of metal molding provided with a finishing strip or welt embodying this invention;
Fig. 2, asection on the line 22, Fig. 1;
'Fig. ,3, a section of the strip or welt shown in Figs. land 2- removed fromthe metal molding;.
Fig. 4, a perspectvie view illustrating the method of manufacturing the strip or welt shown-in Fig. 3;
Fig. 5, a view like Fig. 2 with the finishing stripor welt reversed, and
Figs. 6 and 7, sectional views ofmodifications to be referred to.
Referring to the drawing,and especially Figs. 1 to inclusive, a represents," a sheet metal. molding having a substantially fiat base 10 and side flanges 1'2, 13 preferably curved and turned inwardlytoward each other to leave a relatively wide space or opening between them. 'The flanges 12,13 co-operate with the base 10 to form side channels 14, 15 and the base 10 is provided with holes (not shown} which are suitably spaced apart and through which are driven nails or fastening devices 16 for securing the article to be trimmed.
' tain the shape given to it when molding.
m etal molding tothe automobile top or other Thevspace between the, side flanges 12, 13
is'closed by a finishing strip or welt b, which is preferably made as herein shown and is composed of a piece or strip of leather or like material folded longitudinallytd form two plies or layers 20, 21 of unequal length, so as to provide one layer as 21 with a sufficient surplus to enable it toform a hollow bead .22, preferablysubstantially circular as shown, which is located substantially at the transverse center of the layer 21 to leave side portions of substantial width and is extended lengthwise thereof.
.The hollow head 22 may and preferably will be made of suflicicntly large diameter to contact with the heads 24 of the nails 16 under one condition of use, as will be described.
The portions of the layer 21 on opposite sides-of the-hollow head 22 are cemented or otherwise-secured to the layer 20, which serves to stiffen or strengthen the finishing" strip or welt sufficiently to enable it to re-v placed in the sheet metal molding a.
partially filled a filler member.
In Fig. 2, the filler member is shown as a circular cord or other device 124, which arrangement is preferred, or it may be made as a smaller hollow bead 25 forming part of'a'layer-26 which is interposed between the layers 20, 21, as shown in Fig. 7
In Fig 3,-the finishing strip or welt provided with the head 22 and filler 124, is
- shown in what: be"designated its fiat,
condition. v
The strip 'owelt Z; is capable of. being quickly and easily inserted into the molding. a with a layer 20 outermostasshown in Fig. 2, orwiththe'beaded layer 21 outerinost as shown'in Fig. 5.
In its normal or flat condition shownin- Fig. 3, the finishing strip or welt b is materially wider than the space between the flanges 12, 13 of the metal molding and of sufficient width to enable it to be'arched or curved transversely so as to'have its outer surface bear against the said flanges and its ends bear againstthe base lO of the metal When the finishing strip 5r at b is The. hollow bead 22 may be left empty as shown in Fig.6, or it-may be wholly or placed in the'metal molding with its layer outermost, the molding is provided with a finishing strip or welt of one design or appearance, surface in the form of a continuous plain arch between the side flanges of the molding. When however, the finishing strip or 'welt is reversed, and placed in the molding with the beaded layer 21 outermost, as shown in Fig.5, the metal molding is provided with a finishing strip or welt of a different design or appeara nce,namely, one having an arch provided with a bead located centrally or substantially so with respect to theside flanges of the molding.
It thus becomes evi'd finishing strip or welt is reversible and capable of being used with the metal molding roduce two markedly different designs of finish.
It will be observed that the cost of producing the finishing strip or welt is reduced to the minimum,in the form shown in Fig.
f 6,-wherein it consists of a singlepieceof' 25 to form two layers, .oneof which is provided leather or like material folded'longitudinally with a hollow bead and with side portions of substantialwidth on opposite'sides of said flexed-to insert them under the flanges 13 of the molding; p v In the form sh'owh in Fig; 7, the cost is but slightly increased-by the use-of the reinforcing layer 26, whereas in the referred form shown in Figs. 1, Qtand 5,-" tiie cost is increased but' slightly over the non-reinforced form shown in Fig. 6 by the use of the cord 24?,
It will also be observed that when the finishing 'strip' or Wait is used as shown in' Fig 2, the hollow bead22 is designed'to rest on the head of the nail and form a support namely, one having its. exposed an d then forcing nt that the improved hollow head a which are capable of being- 7 face layer 20 of thefinishing strip or welt. The construction of the finishing strip or welt is suchthat it can be quickly and easily applied to 'or removed from the metal molding, either by sliding it into the molding -member for the arch-shaped outer suror by inserting one edge into one channel the other edge into "the other channel by a tool'drawn longitudinally along the strip in contact with the other flange, the flexibility opposite sides of the hollowbead offlthe finishing strip or welt enabling this to be done.
of the side portions on i From the above description, it will be seen that I-have provided a finishing strip or welt which is reversible and capable of providing different designs,.which can be applied to and removed from the metal moldbead, and a second layer integral with the beaded layer and extended from the edge of one side portion acrossthe'hollow bead to the other side portion to, form a coning in a-minimum time and with a mini? tinuous surface transversely of the beaded layer and substantially coextensive in width with the beaded. layer and secured to the side portions of the beaded layer on opposite sides of the hollow bead thereof.
, In testimony whereof, I have signed my nameto this specification.
